Doesnt contain much fiber and it is practically dirt. It's simply worm castings. Which people add to bulk, and never that much. Great for amending soil though.

Actually I have my own worm beds and boxes. Since the mycelium they eat continues to keave and be spread wherever the worm goes, Im going to feed my worms mycellium and spread their vermicompost, hopefully spreading live and active mycellium. I want to see more wild fruits.

It is cold, but i have boxes inside that i am feeding. Spent cakes, stalled jars, anything. The worms eat it and beneficial bacteria take over the bad.

No fruits although i assume it is possible. Its a recent endeavour and i don't think the mycellium they have been fed will survive past a season. If anyone has Psilocybe caerulipes or psilocybe ovoideocystidiata spores or syringes I would be willing to trade.
